Mr. Cadigan. No; I did examine the "Alek J. Hidell" signature appearing as the signature of registrant, but the known writings available of Lee Harvey Oswald were not sufficiently comparable with the signature to reach a definite opinion. I did note, however, some similarities in the letter "A" and in the last name, the letter "H" and the ending "l." But these were not of sufficient weight nor of sufficient number nor of sufficient combination to warrant a definite opinion.
Mr. Eisenberg. You say you compared this item, this signature with the known standards. Did you compare the signature with questioned documents which you already identified?
Mr. Cadigan. No.
Mr. Eisenberg. Mr. Cadigan, I wonder whether after this deposition would you compare this signature with those questioned signatures of "Alek J. Hidell" which you have now identified?
Mr. Cadigan. Yes; certainly.
Mr. Eisenberg. Mr. Cadigan, I now hand you Commission Exhibit No. 817, consisting of a portion of an application for a post office box 30061 in New Orleans, POD Form 1093, and ask you whether you have examined that item?
Mr. Cadigan. Yes.
Mr. Eisenberg. And have you attempted to determine whether that item, Commission Exhibit No. 817, was prepared by Lee Harvey Oswald, whose known writings we have introduced previously?
Mr. Cadigan. Yes; I have.
Mr. Eisenberg. And what was your conclusion?
